Enzo Fernández Credits Rosenior for Chelsea Uplift and Scoring Surge

The Argentina midfielder says the new coach has given attackers freedom in the final third.

Overview

  • Fernández publicly praised Liam Rosenior as a "great coach," saying the manager has boosted confidence and driven growth across the squad.
  • Since replacing Enzo Maresca at the start of the year, Rosenior has won six of his first eight matches and earned a Premier League Manager of the Month nomination after three league wins in January.
  • Fernández said Chelsea now have greater license to express themselves in attack, describing a tweak that adds freedom in the final meters on top of the existing structure.
  • In a standout campaign, Fernández has 11 goals across 36 games, including a late winner against West Ham, with Opta data highlighting his frequent runs to attack crosses and his tally reaching 27 goals in 151 Chelsea appearances.
  • Links to Real Madrid and PSG persist, yet Fernández says he is happy at Stamford Bridge with more than six years on his deal, and Rosenior reiterated the midfielder is a key Chelsea player as the team sits fifth, one point off fourth.
